Thank you for your service

As long as people enjoy my reposts, I count my time well-spent!

Here you go:

I'll tag him for you so they see this.

@PugJesus@piefed.social

Have you ever enabled "always show instance"?

Yes thank that propagandist for their outstanding contribution to the neoliberal, business as usual approach to world politics!

And I provide... commentary!

@ickplant@lemmy.world sorry i missed you!

I need to get back to posting more.

Uh, oh, don't forget @anon6789@lemmy.world with all the superbowls

That's really nice to hear thanks 😊

Aww, thank you for the kind words.

no you aren't

oh yeah? I argue with two.

Look at my comments and account age, lol.

Not gonna lie, those who comment and argue and debate are heroes…

It's likely scheduled posts I do that on piefed

With my borked sleep schedule due to my borked work hours...

Bots

Dunno how it works here, but back then on Diaspora there was at least one account that was maintained by multiple people.

Everyone goes to Reddit, despite it being an AI Bot filled shit show

Search engines direct you to Reddit as a first page - even first result - choice. It's superceded Wikipedia in a lot of cases.

That’s the worst part of Reddit. The absolute toxicity and superiority complex you see in these giant subreddits. 1 wrong word and everyone comes after you based on 1000 assumptions from that 1 word.

Better quality of poster? All of these memes OP is talking are just straight from Reddit.

It's not that bad, Lemmy still has a long way to go if they ever want to be something close to an alternative.

I love Sandy and her adventures! Looking forward to seeing more of Broccoli Cheddar.

I came for the Sandy I stayed for the heartwarming.

But that's the opposite of backhanded compliment

If the repost keeps getting upvoted and rising to the top, then isn't that a sign that people like it?

atleast he was honest abt is, slop is slop...but this one seems worthy of a pass, im not a big fan of slop either

Everyone's support and encouragement has meant a lot. If I wouldn't have become a poster here, I likely never would have pursued working with owls, but thanks to you all, I worked with a Screech Owl and 3 Great Horns yesterday, along with 4 Red-tailed Hawks, 2 Red Shouldered Hawks, and a bunch of opossums and squirrels.

You guys listening to me and encouraging me to keep sharing gave me the push to go and volunteer, and my life has been so much richer getting to work with so many amazing animals and fellow animal rescuers.

Probably my larger issue with Lemmy as a whole. I work a job that has a lot of downtime but loud environments so my ADHD ass likes to just read content and comments since I need to pay attention to the noise around me. Then I get home and watch some TV or sports on my PC's second monitor while I want to scroll content and comments (Been a forum user since I was 8 years old) and the repetition here can get a little off putting.

Don't get me wrong I love it here. Beats Reddit. But still...

Hahah, I'm german and I'll check it out.

Thank you for your service to the fediverse.

I haven't seen your memes but I have certainly seen your dogs, and for that I am grateful.

You comment. You're adding to the fediverse <3

Also comments!

I don't post much but I like engaging with people.

Does the Fedi roll down the stairs?

Disagree. There are far more posters that post consistently now a days. Before it really was like... 4 or 5 of us but now there's far more than that.

Also while being banned on this account from like half the the communities.

Yeah. I hate content too.

/s

So you hate original content lemmyers put effort into (discussion posts, memes, photos) and praise the laziest form of content (reposting articles someone on another platform made)? Do you want lemmy to become a parasitic platform depending on content from elsewhere to sustain itself?

Dude just make your own space and moderate it accordingly. It will be empty, but at least you'll be happy.

That article was so conflated and entirely waffle, I couldn't read it. It doesn't offer science behind brain rot. I think it's ok for you to have an opinion for yourself on what brain rot is, absolutely, but when you start going warmonger on it, you should really make sure you have more science to give you an understanding and ability to communicate your opinions with more clarity.

There is science out there, but not in the way you might be thinking, based on some of your opinions expressed here. Brain rot isn't going to be able to be avoided by curating the content, the effect of disassociation is caused by distraction, it could be argued any content caused that disassociative effect, which essentially sends your brain into a form of fight or flight, causing it to feel like it's not safe to be here,( if I have to disassociate).

I don't have any great articles to link at this time. But I would suggest it's a personal balance thing. Taking the time to limit the time you spend on the internet, yourself personally, and just taking a moment to exist, just breathe and be, where you are, right now.

The more engaging and interesting posts will naturally float to the top. Maybe, you need to change your settings, or the app you use to engage if you are getting fed with everything as its first posted. I noticed an entirely different experience going from boost to voyager app.

This place isn't about one person deciding for everyone, what is and should be, the antithesis of that is why this place exists, and I'm sure you're noticing, you don't have many people who agree with you. Maybe Either your delivery needs to change, when discussing your opinion, or your opinion itself, might need some expansion and nuance.
